Pretty standard LA deflection tactics. He's still of the opinion that his doping is irrelevant, that he won those tours fair and square, and that he should also be untouchable because he survived cancer and he is Lance Armstrong.

Would be a shoo-in for the Republican nomination, they love wealthy hackneyed idealistic speeches by flag-waving scrappers who want to "stand up and fight for freedom". He just needs to show he is in favour of guns, wars, oil, bare-faced lying and behind-the-scenes manipulation and coercion. Well, he's got most of those sussed already.

Moneygrabbing bully, can lie for years without batting an eyelid - a natural for politics.

As for the actors and zzz-list celebs, they are easily impressed and merely a subset of his blindly loyal fanbase. Stupid famous people love following/fawning publicly over someone they admire (I suspect it's in the hope of getting some back, as they're invariably insecure, needy types).
